Where to begin? The first time we met with Casa Escondida to discuss our elopement plans we knew we had found the perfect place. The thoughtfulness, focus, and attention to detail during that first meeting was impressive. Throughout the planning process, the experience continued to be amazing.

The elopement itself was magical. Ernesto created a touching ceremony specific to us and our story. The time, thought, and care that he put into the ceremony was exceptional. The team did an absolutely incredible job to ensure our day was memorable.

The cake table was gorgeous and the cake was delicious. We appreciate all the time and attention they gave to us and our special day. The exceptional people at Casa Escondida exceeded our expectations. They are now members of our family.
